At Cooperative Extension, 4-H Youth Development strives to equip young people with the knowledge and skills they need to become successful adults. Effective communications and public speaking skills are vital for youth as they develop into tomorrow’s leaders. The 2020 District and State competition was conducted virtually, so participants mastered several new technologies in order to prepare and present their 5-12 minute presentation for judging.
Currituck County had eight 4-H’ers submit their presentations in the Northeast District competition which had a total of 93 presenters from the 22 counties in the District and all eight brought home a medal:
Ashton Lowe, Silver Medalist, Citizenship & Community Service, 14-18-year-olds
